you may remember...Remembering My Make-Believe Parents
"Patterns in the Sand ...As frivolous as the whims of the moment's breeze are the fanciful patterns etched in the sands..."(vintage postcard/photo John Penrod)
"...a beautiful Summer day on the beach..."
"Where Stream and Shore Meet...The water, sand and sky collaborate to create a scene that is a delight to behold..."(vintage postcard/photo John Penrod collaborates unknowingly with me...thank you)

The Suitcase
The Suitcase
Helping my friend Diane to pack her house,
she sent me packing with items she thought would be of interest to me.
This was one.
(I honestly don't think this is finished, but here it is for now)

"Remembering My Make-Believe Parents"
"Remembering My Make-Believe Parents"(July 2009)
William & Elizabeth Clark, my make-believe parents, born long before me and married before I was born. They were nicely settled in by the time I arrived. For how nicely life went for the three of us, I'd say we were all ready, well-suited for one another.
They and only they referred to one another as Bet and Bill. To me they were mom and pop, and I was their little offshoot, munchkin, third pea in the pod. Life wasn't necessarily quiet, but it sure was serene. So much of our lives spent at the small cottage at the edge of the shore's stoney beach. Mom always painting, pop always writing...the glow of lamplight in the night, me on the little screened porch watching the fireflies flicker in time to pop's typing.
He always signed his notes to mom...love always my sweet Bet...your Hemingway
